Teas on Tap 6/12

June 12, 2012

Good morning! This morning we are featuring:

Russian Country is a blend of Keemun, Assam, Ceylon, and Lapsang black teas as well as some oolong. This tea is reminiscent of the teas that were carried by camel across the Asian deserts to Russia.

Sencha Scent of Mountains is a green tea from Kawane, one of the highest tea growing spots in Japan, where it is cooler and foggier, so the tea grows slower and has a lovely vegetal aroma.
